75 Grant Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

The four-story, 24-unit New Law tenement building at 75 Grant Avenue in Cypress Hills, owned by Marija Vukelic and constructed in 1930, has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Between 2023 and 2025, the building has documented various problems including water leaks, mold issues, ceiling damage, and pest infestations, with the most recent reports in April 2025 highlighting violations related to ceiling paint/plaster conditions.

Notably, there was an emergency heat/hot water complaint for the entire building in December 2023, and an ongoing electrical wiring emergency reported in June 2025. The building has faced recurring rodent issues, evidenced by multiple bait application inspections throughout 2023 and 2022, along with documented rat activity in June 2022. Several housing maintenance code violations have been addressed, including broken self-closing doors, defective window guards, and issues with the bell/buzzer/intercom system, particularly affecting apartments 1D, 2E, and 3A.

While there was one reported bedbug infestation in 2021-2022, subsequent filings from 2022 through 2024 show no further infestations. The property owner has faced regulatory scrutiny for failing to file necessary external low-pressure inspections in 2020 and 2021, though these violations were later dismissed. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic infrastructure and pest management, despite periodic inspections and some repairs being documented as completed.
